The Bundesliga team announced that Harry Kane, a striker for Bayern Munich, is doubtful for tomorrow’s German Cup matchup against Bayer Leverkusen, the defending champions.
The 31-year-old, who leads Germany’s top flight in scoring this season, was substituted out of the game during the first half of Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Borussia Dortmund.
According to a statement from Bayern, Kane has a minor muscle tear in the rear of his right thigh. This implies that for the time being, Bayern will have to make do without Kane.
Kompany said at a press conference, “Harry feels that it might not be something too serious.” However, we shall have to wait. We won’t know anything more till he completes a scan.
“But Tuesday will undoubtedly be a tight day. Kompany remarked, “I don’t know many guys who can recover that rapidly.
Bayern, who had won seven straight games in all categories prior to Saturday, will play Leverkusen in the German Cup round of 16 on Tuesday.
“We have always stated that we have faith in our team, but Harry’s goals are really difficult to replace,” remarked the coach. There isn’t a player like him anywhere else, but the boys can cooperate to make it happen. Before Musiala’s late equaliser, it looked like Bayern might lose their first league game without Kane’s firepower up front.
“We always aspire for three points at the start of a game, but today we didn’t do it. Kompany said, “That’s the truth.” We were one goal behind, so we showed character. Our belief was shown by levelling off and then pushing on. No victorious team can spend a whole season without experiencing such moments.
Although Kane is anticipated to be sidelined for a few weeks, Kompany stated that he expects to return to play before the start of the winter break on December 22. Bayern leads the Bundesliga with four points over Eintracht Frankfurt.
